Meg's 34th Birthday... Ouch!

As painful as it might be, I celebrated another birthday. The day started at 6:30 this morning, when Troy woke me up with tons of kisses and said "Get up sweetie, time for basketball" We went to play basketball this morning with the Missionaries, and a few guys from our ward. They meet every Saturday to play ball. We actually hadn't played with them since we first moved here.

It was fun. Troy played great, I did alright. I had to guard one of the missionaries, and I've never been so (Aware) of how much contact you actually make with the person you're guarding. I guess it was amplified due to the fact that this poor kid is on his mission, and usually they have no contact with the opposite sex, besides a hand shake!!! But he was a good sport, I apologized when we finished, and he said it was OK, he's such a cutie! We love our Missionaries, they come over to our house all the time. We always have a great discussions with them. They're coming over to our house for Christmas dinner, we're very excited to share that time with them.

Anyway, after basketball, we came home and wished that we had Kandace and Tyler's hot-tub. Troy and I are a little out of shape! We both had to take Advil to help with the pain!!!

Then for some reason, we decided to go to the mall? It was CRAZY! Every person that didn't go out of town was there, and they were all in a huge hurry, just like they always are around this place! Still, it's hard to say too many bad things about the mall, I mean shopping is shopping, no matter how long the lines are! After spending a little dough, we came home, to check on Kain, who was fairly good this time, only a few things were out of place, and sporting his teeth marks! But he is so dang cute, you just can't help but love him.

Finally, we went to dinner at a new restaurant called Emmett's, right down the street from our house. It was okay. I just think we were all so worn out from this day, that we would have been just as happy staying home and eating some "Sticky rice" All and all, it was a great day, and really it was only missing two things, Jaylyn and Hallie. We miss them so much, it hurts!

Thank you all for your Happy Birthday wishes, it means so much to me...

Oh, I also wanted to thank Nikki for the special pillow she sent. Troy thinks it's really going to change everything, as long as it always reads TONIGHT!!! Ha ha love you all
